EXPERIMENT NO. 2 : SELECTION OF SUITABLE GRID FOR MODEL

OBJECTIVE
To select the value of suitable grid and substitute the dimensions of Representative
Elemental Volume and to study about Simulation of Reservoir Modeling & Simulation with
suitable grid.

PRINCIPLE
The main objective is to give the Grid Size. This totally depends upon the size of
Reservoir and to simulate the exploitation of a real reservoir without the costs of real life
trial and error, e.g. to test different production scenarios to find an optimal one
before the reservoir is actually put on production.

EQUIPMENTS REQUIRED

Server: Virtual or VMWARE
CPU Info: 4 Core
Model: Intel ® Xeon ® CPU ES-2650 v2 @ 2.60 GHz

Step 3.

Import the Data

Open BaseMap
Select your areal extent using either: the Graphic Mode or List Mode.

a) If using Graphic Mode, you can select by manually drawing a polygon or

selecting from posted GIS polygons.

b) List Mode gives you several options for selecting existing polygons. Make
your selection.

2 Make Seismic, Interpretation Model, and/or Well Data selections.

c) If making seismic selections, do the following:
• Click the Seismic Tab, select the domain, the 3D survey(s) and/or 2D lines,
then class, and review and change any parameter selections.
• Click MB1 on the Output Seismic Volume button to put the selections in
the Output Selections (cont) list.
• Repeat for as many survey/class pairs as needed.
• Click the Interpretation Tab, select the survey(s) and/or 2D lines, review
and change any parameter selections, then click MB1 on Output Horizons
and Faults.
• Repeat for as many surveys and 2D lines as needed if multiple surveys
and/or 2D lines were not selected.
b. All fault boundaries that are contained in or intersect the selected output
polygon can be selected for export by clicking Output Fault Boundaries.
c. If making well data selections, do the following:
• Click the Well Data Tab, select the log curves, lithofacies data, and markers
to transfer.
• Click MB1 on Output Well Data.

4 Review your selections in the Output Selections section, and adjust the list as
needed using the Scissors ( ) icon.

5 Go to the Petrel Output Controls section and select the output directory
where you want to export the ZGY and Zip files.

6 GeoFrame 2012_SP_4: GeoFrame Data Connector online help

Make any output Projection or Unit changes at this time. Verify CRS settings
set as needed.

6 Click OK or Apply.
The export begins with a progress report opening. When the progress report is
no longer on the screen, the export is complete.

7 Go to a Windows PC and open Petrel to start loading the ZGY file.

8 Load your 3D interpretation by locating the Import from GeoFrame folder in

the Processes section on Petrel’s data tree.

9 Open the folder and select Import an interpretation model which opens
the Import an interpretation model dialog box and load your model(s) and
fault boundaries here.

10 With the folder still open, select Import well information which opens the
Import well information dialog box and load your well data here.

11 Now, select Import 2D seismic and interpretation option to open the

Import 2D seismic and interpretation
